Description

Housed in downtown's upscale L.A Live mall, this multistory museum doesn't appear to be very rock & roll on the surface, but it does boast a variety of permanent and traveling exhibits. While the focus is largely on mainstream figures in rock, pop, R&B, country and jazz, the venue also hosts regular performances in which celebrity musicians perform a few tunes and discuss their craft with an audience Q&A. All ages.

  • 2012 | Best New Museum

    The Grammy Museum opened in 2008 -- the 50th anniversary of the Grammy Awards -- at L.A. Live downtown. It packs more than two dozen exhibits into 30,000 square feet spread over four floors, celebrating music ranging from rock to country, R&B to classical, Latin to jazz.
